Everything but sewing.............

I touched fabric but didn't cut or sew yesterday.  I started out by loading a baby quilt on the longarm. At the same time I was doing laundry.

I got busy outside in the afternoon.  I planted one large Early Girl tomato plant and 2 small Sun Gold tomato plants in the raised bed in the backyard.  One corner of the bed has rotted so I think this is the last year for the corners but maybe I can salvage the side boards.

I think this may be the first volunteer tomato plant in the raised bed.  I'm not going to plant anything else in there until I see how many volunteers come up from seed.  I left a lot of tomatoes in this bed at the end of the season.

I only got 2 tomato plants in the ground along the driveway.  This end gets afternoon sun. The plant on the left will be for my little neighbor girl.  I have 3 Hostas next in that bed in the area that is in the shade most of the time.  At the other end (to the right) I will plant 3 more tomato plants.  That area gets sun all morning.

Here is a view of my Weigela bush in full bloom, taken from the backyard direction.  It is really 2 bushes planted close together.  After it blooms I will trim it back pretty drastically because my neighbor mows this little side edge of my lot when he mows his yard.  It will be a lot easier for him to mow there when it is trimmed.

My pale pink Columbine in the back garden is in full bloom now.  I bought this plant from a plant sale by a local group about 15 years ago.  It was a good size plant with a big root base when I got it.  My other Columbines in the backyard have all died out.

After I got my planting done I went to the local hardware store for potting soil and ant poison.  My son gave me a gift card from there for Mother's Day.
